We had a lovely stay at the hotel. The facilities are great, the staff are incredibly friendly and helpful, and the food was excellent throughout. While some areas are starting to feel a little tired, it didn’t take away from the overall experience. I really enjoyed my time here and will definitely be back!

Hotel is nice. Staff are very friendly and attentive. Food is really high quality but overly expensive. Breakfast is fabulous. Bar is very disappointing, no atmosphere in it whatsoever and drinks are a ridiculous price. Our room was very small and poorly lit but bathroom was very nice.
